Use the Boucher vs. Ingres Comparison Images to write an one page essay comparing and contrasting Ingres’s “Grande Odalisque” from the Romantic/Orientalist period with Boucher’s “The Toilet of Venus” from the Rococo period.
Consider these questions:
How is the setting and atmosphere of the scene different?
How are the bodies of the subjects portrayed differently?
How does each painting communicate sensuality?
Which painting do you like better, and why? Or do neither suite your taste?
